Universal definition of myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: Information on myocardial infarction attack rates can provide useful data regarding the burden of coronary artery disease within and across populations, especially if standardized data are collected in a manner that demonstrates the distinction between incident and recurrent events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cardiac troponin I. A marker with high specificity for cardiac injury.

TL;DR: Measurement of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) has sufficient specificity to clarify the etiology of MBCK elevations in patients with acute or chronic skeletal muscle disease or renal failure, and Elevations of cTNI are highly specific for myocardial injury.
Journal ArticleDOI
